Chu Yuning was anxious, she was really anxious.

She was really afraid of Xiao Beichen, but her fear was different from that of Jiang Wan before.

It's more like I've heard so much from others that my impression of Xiao Beichen has naturally been formed in my heart.

There are many brainless people who want to marry him and become the phoenix on the branch.

But she definitely doesn't want to!

She had always wanted the gentle type.

Chu Yuning didn't understand Xiao Beichen, but Chu Huaiwen knew him a little.

It is true that people are killing people like crazy, but it is also targeted.

It is also true that he is cold-blooded and ruthless, so when he heard Chu Yuning say that Xiao Beichen took on the matter, he was surprised.

King Chen, who usually doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs, is actually meddling in other people's affairs?

I thought of something else, maybe it was because of Jiang Minghe's face.

After all, when Xiao Beichen was young, Jiang Minghe also taught him martial arts.

Thinking of this, he was no longer worried.

With Jiang Minghe in front, nothing will happen to Jiang Wan.

only……

He put away the thoughts in his eyes, patted Chu Yuning's shoulder, and comforted her: "Don't worry, Wanwan will be fine."

"Daddy..."

"Go, find your mother, and leave the rest to your father."

With Chu Huaiwen's assurance, Chu Yuning looked back every few steps, biting her lip, and walked away worriedly.

Looking at Chu Yuning's leaving back, Chu Huaiwen's usually approachable face turned into a cold one.

Sending someone to call Lu Zhiyan back, Chu Huaiwen left the house.

……

In Prince Chen's mansion, Jiang Wan and the others were not at all surprised by Chu Huaiwen's arrival.

Jiang Wan had already guessed that Chu Yuning would not come.

Chu Yuning is the precious daughter in Chu Huaiwen's heart. Knowing that she almost got into trouble, the fear would make Chu Yuning lose her freedom for a while.

Jiang Wan, whom Chu Huaiwen hadn't seen for many years, was surprised when he first saw her.

He could tell from her features that the woman in the main hall was Jiang Wan, but he never thought that there was something wrong with her face.

He frowned slightly, walked into the main hall, and saluted to Xiao Beichen according to the rules.

Then Jiang Wan walked up to Chu Huaiwen, leaned down and performed the junior's etiquette, "Wanwan greets uncle. I haven't seen uncle and aunt for many years. Are they doing well?"

"Okay, get up quickly, get up quickly." Chu Huaiwen helped her up and looked at her again.

He stared at her, as if he couldn't figure something out.

Jiang Wan smiled generously and friendly, letting Chu Huaiwen look at her.

For a moment, the atmosphere here was very quiet.

After a while, just when Jiang Wan thought Chu Huaiwen was going to say something to her, Chu Huaiwen actually bypassed her, walked up to Yunhua, and thanked her for saving his life.

"This must be Master Yun who saved my Ning'er. I have no way of repaying your great kindness to my Chu family..."

"Prime Minister Chu, there is no need to do this. It is just a small favor."

While they were saying thank you, Jiang Wan was quite surprised.

When Chu Huaiwen stared at her just now, there was joy and excitement in his eyes, and there was also a hint of ambiguous meaning flashing across his eyes, and she saw clearly the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

But I don't know why the words changed after taking a turn.

Jiang Wan turned his head to look at Xiao Beichen. Their eyes met and they understood what the other meant.

After thanking him, Chu Huaiwen actually said to Xiao Beichen: "Your Highness, I'm afraid that what happened today was caused by the enemies I made in my early years. I didn't mean to involve Wanwan and the young ladies. I am guilty.

Please give me a chance, Your Majesty. I will definitely catch the murderer and give an explanation to the young ladies."

Something is wrong! Something is extremely wrong!

This was Jiang Wan’s first reaction after hearing what Chu Huaiwen said.

This meant that Xiao Beichen had to let go and let him handle it himself. This...

Xiao Beichen looked at Jiang Wan, the meaning in their eyes was self-evident, there was a big problem!

"Master Chu, do you know that since I have taken on this case in public, how can I give up easily? Whether it is an enemy or not, I will find out personally!"

Then, in Jiang Wan's astonishment, Chu Huaiwen lifted his robe and knelt down, "I understand that it will be difficult for Your Majesty to go back on his word..."

Chu Huaiwen paused and lowered his head again, "Please, Your Majesty, consider my loyalty to the country over the years and give me a chance to handle my family affairs."

"Family affairs? Lord Chu, do you think that I am easy to deceive? Or Lord Chu knows who the murderer is but wants to cover it up?"

Chu Huaiwen closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, "I dare not, I..."

"Uncle, this matter has something to do with me, right?"

This sudden remark caused Chu Huaiwen to rebuke him: "What nonsense! This is my Chu family's business, what does it have to do with Miss Jiang?!"

“Prime Minister Chu…!”

"Your Majesty!"

Jiang Wan stopped Xiao Beichen from speaking. He turned his head to look at her and instantly understood what she meant.

He nodded slightly, indicating that she should not worry.

Then he looked at Chu Huaiwen who lowered his head, "Since Prime Minister Chu unanimously believes that this is a private matter of the Chu family, it is indeed not appropriate for me to interfere too much. In this case, Prime Minister Chu will take care of the rest!"

After these words were spoken, it was Chu Huaiwen's turn to be surprised why Xiao Beichen was so easy to talk to today?

During the short time he had been here, he had already thought of many words to persuade Xiao Beichen to let go, and even thought of threatening him with the position of prime minister.

But I never thought that letting go would be so easy?
